Images

Please go ahead and remove the images. I would do it myself, but I don't know how. I have some more reading to do about image upload guidelines and will try again later in the week or next week! Thank you!

Unspecified source for Image:050525-F-0000P-020.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:050525-F-0000P-020.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:29, 12 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. OsamaK 10:29, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

If you were to examine the file history of the image Image:050525-F-0000P-020.jpg, you would have seen that there were many users who have manipulated the content which I had originally had put on the file. I have since then reverted all changes made after the initial upload of the file, the source is on the United States Air Force website, therefore making it a public domain. Have a nice day. -Signaleer 12:01, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Maag_Tartu.png

Hello. I'm sorry, but I was adding the fair use rationale for this logo the moment you added the message. All of the necessary fair use information and source is now included on the page, so I will delete your tag. Please let me know if this is a problem or if you have any questions. Best regards.

Source to image

Can you help me out here - things seem to be getting a bit tight regarding images - it's a while since I uploaded any - what have I done wrong this time!? Unspecified source for Image:CormacMcCarthy_BloodMeridian.jpg is specified the source in the fair use statements. :: Kevinalewis : /(Desk) 11:08, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

If English is a problem, why edit on an English language site! :: Kevinalewis : /(Desk) 11:31, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Image License

Hi there - thanks for pointing out I had not set the license to the four images - I've just uploaded four, which I've included the links below (these are to be linked into the Slow-scan_television page to demonstrate interferance, but I've got a bit of confusion over what license should be set. The images where captured by myself (2E0OUZ) but wheret transmitted by a german who I have no contact with - I am unsure which license this should come under - I placed the last two under TV license for the moment. Could you advise if this was a mistake?

That has to be record for quickness. Note I always add the rationale afterwards - I copy and paste it saves me writing it out time and time again. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ 18:04, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Image:Astrosaur_-_Sprite.jpg

Thank you for your message, but I think you are mistaken. Both the copyright holder and the source of the image are detailed for the image, and it already has a copyright tag - {{Non-free character}} - and a fair use rationale. Please let me know if you feel that anything else is missing. --Legis (talk - contribs) 18:57, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Item 1 of fair use rationale. It is a low resolution scan of a collector's card provided as a promotional freebie with the books. Copyright is held by the author and/or the publisher. --Legis (talk - contribs) 19:07, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I scanned, as it says in the Fair Use rationale on the summary page. It is no different from 3,000 other scanned images of cartoon characters that have been uploaded onto Misplaced Pages for the same reason and by the same method. --Legis (talk - contribs) 20:34, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: Unspecified source for Image:Sivaji_firstday.jpg

Thanks for letting me know that. Actually, it's a photo of a poster taken by Universal Hero. I simply forgot to mention that it was taken by him. Thanks for bringing this to my attn. Happy wiki-ing! aJCfreak yAk 06:28, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Your VandalProof Application

Thank you for your interest in VandalProof, OsamaK. As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that, by-and-large, your account has only been editing actively for around fifteen days.

Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank again for your interest in VandalProof. Daniel 06:58, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

In the image, Tokka rahzar.jpg, where would I post these links? Would I have to reupload it?

Your bot - general comments

Hi OsamaK,

I see that you recently been tagging images for missing source or license information. As I've explained to you previously on WP:BOTREQ, it's usually necessary to file a new request for approval with the BAG for new tasks your bot is performing (or go the talk page route, if you prefer). Technically, that goes for fixing double redirects, as well. Fixing double redirects obviously isn't that controversial of an issue but tagging images is an entirely different thing and if you want to use a bot to do that, you should file a separate request. Also, please don't use your bot account to post comments, as you did here. Thank you. --S 11:49, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi again and thanks for your quick reply. In that case, I apologize. I thought you were using your bot to tag images which, as you may know, has lead to a bit of an uproar in the past. Using a script under your bot account to semi-manually tag images is fine. I just wanted to make sure you were aware of the requirements in case you had decided to use a bot for that to avoid any potential problems. Hope you have a good Sunday. Cheers S 13:31, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Image:Sundaymail97winning4.jpg

Hi OsamaK. The image source for that file was specified. The confusion may have arisen from an extra tag that did not have content. I have made some minor changes that now clafify the issue. The image is used under Australian Copyright laws. I thank you for your original concern. Ozdaren 06:58, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Coin image

I have added the comment that the source for the image of the coin was 'A scan of my own coin'. Should the wording be changed to something else, such as "Scan of a coin in my own possession', or something similar? Also, is this enough information? All coins which I have scanned and uploaded have been coins in my possession, which I own. Figaro 02:17, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you. All the best. Figaro 02:23, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

:Image:Broadvoice.gif Fair Use

Could you please explain to me why this image was not deleted? I tell you this becuase you complained to the editor about it. I would have assumned you would have followed up. I see the editor attempted to fill in the fair use information but it was not done properly, as per the the guidline. I would have assumed you would have corrected the fair use information to conform with the guideline for him (so you don't have to delete it (as I do for others), or deleted it. --akc9000 18:19, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Sylvia Saint image

I'm not sure why you placed a speedy deletion tag on Image:Sylvia Saint 001.jpg, giving the reason that it was a test page when it clearly isn't. Anyway, I've removed the tag, let me know if you have any objections, or further clarification for tagging the image. Regards, Canley 11:52, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Are you sure it's a test page? There is no indication in the summary that it's a test, and it's used in two articles (Sylvia Saint and Bomis). What is the reason you think it's a test? --Canley 22:04, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

File:Lenna.gif

I have removed the FU tag that you added to this image that said, "The image is used for what the woman looks like", which is not true. As you can read, in the Lenna article]], the reason the depicted woman Lena Soderberg is famous (and even deserves a wikipedia article) is because of the particular cropped image, i.e., this is one of those rare, perhaps unique, instance in which the fame of a playboy models derives from the notability of an image itself. To summarize: Lenna.gif is not used to depict what Lena Soderberg looks like; rather the articles Lena Soderberg is used to discuss the person behind the famous image. Hope that settles your doubts about the fair use of the image. Abecedare 15:12, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
